I wondered whether you posted that story as a hint?

If I was Jesus, I would come back to Earth working through someone first, (working from the bottom rung of the ladder, upwards).

Jesus would probably inconspicuously build up a following of people who were open to all thoughts and all philosophies, (through one man or woman), a bit like what DK did with Alice Bailey. Then in about 25 years when everything was going according to His plan, he would step out from the shadows and announce to the world that He was already here, but not until he had enough Disciples or followers working within His light. It would not be something out of the blue, but more like a long drawn out process of planning.

Something like what is already happening here on this list!

JJ:
The purpose of the parable was to get readers to think outside the box.

Your assumption is actually quite close to the teachings of DK. He tells us that Christ will work through a number of disciples before he appears. He also indicates that either the overshadowing principle or his appearance in his own body could constitute his Second Coming, dependent on the need and opportunity.

Esoteric students need to remember that he came last time through the body of a disciple (Jesus) and not in a body of his own. Exactly how he will come this time is not fully revealed, so we must be open to all possibilities.

Now how did the machines know what Tasty Wheat tasted like, huh? Maybe they got it wrong. Maybe what I think Tasty Wheat tasted like actually tasted like, uh...Oatmeal or Tuna fish. That makes you wonder about a lot of things. You take chicken for example. Maybe they couldn't tell what to make chicken taste like which is why chicken tastes like everything!
